Hello world,

the attached patch speeds up the library version of matmul for AMD chips
by selecting AVX128 instructions and, depending on which instructions
are supported, either FMA3 (aka FMA) or FMA4.

Jerry tested this on his AMD systems, and found a speedup vs. the
current code of around 10%.

I have been unable to test this on a Ryzen system (the new compile farm
machines won't accept my login yet).  From the benchmarks I have read,
this method should also work fairly well on a Ryzen.

So, OK for trunk?

Regards

	Thomas
